Creating a business, especially a creative agency can be a lot of work. Luckily the creatives at NMCO have some helpful pointers and insights on how to hit the ground running and find some much-needed balance.
#1 Cultivate Relationships:
Invest in meaningful relationships with both your clients and your staff. People are more likely to do business with people that they….well…like. Don’t stop there, your staff is just as important as your patrons. Treat your staff well and they will return the favor.
#2 Know Yourself & Your Employee’s Capabilities:
They say “Fake it until you make it” and while it’s okay to take risks, don’t bite off more than you can chew. Business, just like life, is about finding that perfect balance. Know what you and your staff are capable of doing and gradually grow your skills and services over time.
#3 It’s Okay to Say NO!:
Starting a business is challenging enough and while you always want to try and make the clients happy, don’t make yourself miserable in the process. Even though it may be difficult turning down work and money, sometimes less is more. Your sanity is just as important as your profits.
#4 Work Hard & Efficiently:
Starting a business is challenging enough and while you always want to try and make the clients happy, don’t make yourself miserable in the process. Even though it may be difficult to turn down work and money, sometimes less is more. Your sanity is just as important as your profits.
#5 Always Be Learning:
Starting a business is challenging enough and while you always want to try and make the clients happy, don’t make yourself miserable in the process. Even though it may be difficult to turn down work and money, sometimes less is more. Your sanity is just as important as your profits.
